Instructor: Mr. Cerrone   



Welcome, My name is Damon Cerrone. We are extremely excited about the 2010- 2011 school year. I am very proud of the entire school community for working together to achieve AYP status for the 2009-2010 school year. For us to continue to be successful we need the entire community to become involved. As we begin a new year please look to become an intregal part of our most valuable commodity, " Our Children"
Department Announcements
January
The weather continues to wreak havoc with our schedule in the month of January. We have not had a full week of school since returning from the Winter Holiday. When the discipline, routine and structure that school provides is disrupted it makes it difficult for all students to reach their potential. I am hoping the weather in the upcoming months is going to cooperate, so all of us can get back into our routines. I miss not seeing the children everyday and watching them develop into academically, socially and emotionally.

Parent Tips for Bullying

Parenting Tips on Bullying

1. Encourage your children to report bullying incidents to you.

  • Validate your children’s feelings by letting them know it’s normal to feel hurt, sad, scared and angry.
  • Let them know they are right to report the incident and are not to blame.
  • Help your children be specific in describing bullying incidents.

    2. Ask your children how they tried to stop the bullying.

    3. Coach your children about possible alternatives.
  • Avoidance is often the best strategy.
  • Play in a different place.
  • Play a different game.
  • Stay near a supervising adult when bullying is likely to occur.

    4. Treat the school as your ally.
  • Share your children’s concerns and specific information about bullying incidents with appropriate school personnel.
  • Work with school staff to protect your children from possible retaliation.
  • Establish a plan with the school and your children for dealing with future incidents.

    5. Encourage your children to seek help and to report bullying incidents     to someone they feel safe with at school, such as a teacher, counselor, principal or bus driver.

    6. Use school personnel and other parents as resources for finding positive ways to encourage respectful behaviors at school.
  • Volunteer time to help supervise field trips, the playground or the lunchroom.
